Comparing GPU clouds for the B200
Answer in brief
For the B200, the comparison turns on shape: some GPU clouds rent a single card and others only a node of eight.
Runcrate is our pick for B200 buyers who want to pay by the second, and when its feed has none to start, the table here says so plainly.
What you are comparing
The B200 is a Blackwell datacenter GPU built for training and high-throughput inference. It sits between the H200 and the B300 in memory and in price.
For many teams it is the practical top of the range. That makes it the card where a careful comparison pays off most.
Sort by shape first
Split the B200 listings into two groups: single cards and 8-GPU nodes. They are different purchases and they answer different needs. A single card suits inference and fine-tuning. A node suits training one model across eight cards.
On 12 Nov 2026, the lowest listed hourly total for an 8-GPU B200 machine was $28.00. Compare that with other nodes, never with a single-card price.
Then availability
Within your group, read the label. A B200 that is sold out, gated or blocked by quota is not an option today, whatever it costs.
Blackwell stock changes quickly. Check the date beside the label and repeat the check on the day you run.
Then price and unit
On 12 Nov 2026, 10 providers listed an on-demand B200 price. The lowest was $3.50 per GPU-hour, the median $8.34 and the highest $14.24.
Read the billing unit beside each. Inference traffic rises and falls, and a card billed by the hour charges for the quiet part of every hour.
The last check
Confirm what the price includes. CPU cores, memory and local disk are part of some prices and extra on others. Storage that outlives the machine is always its own line.
Then make one short run before you settle. Start the machine, load your model and stop it. The charge shows the billing unit and whether booting was billed. The time to start shows how the provider behaves on a busy day. Ten minutes of testing costs little on any card. A week planned around a B200 you could not start costs much more.
